Sun, 06 Nov 2011 13:07:41 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=53909#comment-19432here’s a thought: how about just playing extra periods until someone wins? basketball and baseball do that, they don’t bother with BS point systems or BS skills competitions to decide a game. football allows ties, but football kinda sucks. unlike baseball, hockey teams don’t often play back-to-back games, so if they play for a while they have time to recharge. keep playing 20 minute 5 on 5 periods until someone wins. i hate the 4 on 4 gimmick, i hate the shootout gimmick, i’m not a purist by any means but i’m not a fan of hockey being turned into a circus either.

There is definitely some gray area in the rules

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 17:09:28 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=53909#comment-19290I’m still amazed the NHL is using a skills competition to settle a tied hockey game.

How about an extra 5 mins of 4 on 4? If you can’t get a goal in 10 mins, so be it.

The Shoot-out Rule is the same as the Penalty Shot Rule 24.2 wherein ‘. . . .The puck must be kept in motion towards the opponent’s goal line and once it is shot, the play shall be considered complete. . . .and any time the puck crosses the goal line or comes to a complete stop, the shot shall be considered complete. ‘ So was the puck still moving on or off his stick after throwing on the brakes?

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 16:09:08 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=53909#comment-19280I agree. Briere stopped his forward motion.

The guys in the “war” room need to brush up on their physics.

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 13:13:04 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=53909#comment-19268This is tough, because there was still a little bit of movement. For all intents and purposes, though, it was a stop.

Problem is, you cant put “for all intents and purposes” in the rule book and expect it to be consistent.

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 12:44:56 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=53909#comment-19266If they allow a move like this- the goalie’s might as well go sit on the bench and just let the players flip a coin to see who wins. – they must have the heat up too high in the “war” room.

Fri, 04 Nov 2011 11:55:33 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=53909#comment-19263Agreed on the horrible replay shown here.

It is very borderline, no doubt. I’ll trust the judggement of the war-room, but I would not recommend anyhone trying that move in the future; could easily be called off.
